We are delighted to introduce the Seed Neurodiversity Hub, comprising a panel of specialist experts who can offer a range of services to support adults, teens, children and parents of children either diagnosed or with presenting symptoms of neurodivergence. This includes ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia and Aspergers.
At Seed, many of us have had first-hand experience, either professionally or personally, with the frustrations and challenges of finding the right support for neurodivergence. We are seeing a rise in adults seeking assessment, gaining a diagnosis and / or looking for support for themselves or their child / young person.
The journey can be very frustrating and the pathway unclear. Prices are high and the NHS route means lengthy wait for appropriate support.
We provide a 360 approach, with a range of specialist practitioners covering assessment & diagnosis, mental health support, nutritional support, natural supplement support and medication support where needed. Whatever stage of your journey, we are here to guide you. For more information, please email info@seedwellness.co.uk.

Neurodiversity is the concept that neurological differences—such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, Tourette syndrome, and others—are natural variations of the human brain rather than deficits or disorders that need to be “fixed.” It emphasises that people experience and interact with the world in many different ways and that there is no single “right” way of thinking, learning, or behaving.
-
Perspective: It promotes acceptance and inclusion rather than pathologising these differences.
-
Social Model: Neurodiversity aligns with the social model of disability, which suggests that societal barriers, not just individual impairments, are what disable people.
- Movement: The neurodiversity movement advocates for the rights, dignity, and contributions of neurodivergent individuals.
It’s important to note that while neurodiversity recognises natural variation, it doesn’t ignore the challenges people face; rather, it seeks to support individuals in ways that respect their unique needs and strengths.
It is also important to recognise that whilst medication works for some, it is helpful to gain support to develop the Executive Skills that are particularly challenging in relation to ADHD. These skills are recognisable from as young as 17 months and develop through to 26 years of age. Seated in the pre-frontal cortex the Executive Skills are as follows:
- Sustaining focus
- Working memory
- Goal orientated focus
- Planning and prioritisation
- Organisation
- Time management
- Metacognition (thinking about how we think)
- Cognitive flexibility & emotional regulation
